now if i have
2 PCs with one LAN card each
1 BSNL ADSL modem with one Ethernet and a USB connectivity

so if i connect my modem via USB to PC1 and then, connect PC1 and PC2 using Cross-Over CAT 5 Cable with both end punched with RJ45 jacks.
and then following the tutorial, i will be able to use internet on both PC1 and PC2. Will I be able to transfer data from PC1's Hard-Disk to PC2's HDD??

Yes you should be able to access PC HDD from each and another and one more thing, you have Type-II or Type-IV modem from BSNL which comes with 4 Ethernet port, you can use that Modem as one HUB... so in that case Modem will log in to Internet using PPPoE Feature and Both PC will share the same Getway (Thats your Modem) IP 192.168.1.1 !!! and will connect to Modem using the CAT5 inteface... modem will act as one HUB and will allow File and printer share between those 2 PCs...

:D

@ChotoCheeta,

i hav to connect my pc with a little different scenario,

like i have connected my 1st system to modem using a usb cable to my 1st PC & and this same PC is connected to D-Link Hub (8 ports) for networking.

Net works only on this 1st PC and rest of d PC's r not connected to net, but they r working fine with Lan network, the reason i'm doing this is bcoz i want other system to connect to net only if this system is " ON " but if this system is off, let the other system be networked without internet.

how do i go abt, i tried my level best by changin ip's but does not work.... also tried both ur method told in 1st post of d thread they too dont work. ???

Hello,

I suppose this is the Bellow Interface which you want to follow... I would try to provide some info to share net in this bellow format...

*img511.imageshack.us/img511/9549/01rm5.jpg

In this case you should use On Demand Connection / Bridge Mode connection... which means you would configure ur user name password under PC 1 to Dial PPPoE connection under PC 1 Via USB Interface of the Modem...

1st set up one on demand or Bridge Mode Connection for PC 1...

Now PC 1 should Have 3 ICON under Network Connection when you have pluged in the Modem Via USB and its Powered On..

  • DataOne / ISP Name (PPPoE Dial Connection)
  • Local Area Network (USB)
  • Local Area Network 2 (LAN)

Now make sure u have File and Printer Share turned on... and then allow Share for the Connection DataOne (PPPoE Dial Connection) under Network Connections...

In your Case LAN 2 of PC 1 will go in to Hub / Switch using a Straight cable... :) Please set these bellow IP address for the LAN 2 (Ethernet connection) under Network Connections...

IP Address :- 192.168.0.1
Subnet :- 255.255.255.0
Default Getway :- 192.168.0.1 (or u should leave it blank unless u have any problem)

DNS :- ISP DNS (though most of the times u dont need them)

Now for PC 2 - 3 - 4 - ....

They are too connected to the Hub / Switch using Straight Cable, so go to their Network Connections, at their LAN set these bellow IPs...

IP Address :- 192.168.0.2
Subnet :- 255.255.255.0
Default Getway :- 192.168.0.1

DNS :- 192.168.0.1

Now for PC 3 and so on, just change the IPs to 192.168.0.2 then 192.168.0.3 and so on.. rest should be the same..

To see if you have successful network or not, Ping the PC 1 (Server) ping 192.168.0.1 - t when successful now Ping any external Sites like ping google.co.in - t

Note few this, keep the modem power on and keep loged in to the Connection via Dialing it under PC 1...

You may need to reboot all systems after u set the IPs... :)

Hey Saurabh aka Choto, thanks for the lovely tutorial. As I have just no experience in field of networking or LAN, I have a few doubts.

1. As I want to connect two computers, both having 1 Ethernet card, I guess I will need a Switch in this case, right? Well, I do have a switch, so that shouldn't be a problem, but just wanted to know is there a direct way to connect without using the switch. My modem connects via Ethernet only.

2. I have Win Xp on the main computer and Win 98 on the other. Will that be alright?

3. As both my computers are about 50 mts away, can I use a CAT cable for this purpose. If not, what is the other alternative.

Nice of you to leave a comment like that :D

1. As I want to connect two computers, both having 1 Ethernet card, I guess I will need a Switch in this case, right? Well, I do have a switch, so that shouldn't be a problem, but just wanted to know is there a direct way to connect without using the switch. My modem connects via Ethernet only.

There are 2 ways... without using a Swicth or Hub

1. Find a Modem which has USB or Wiki Interface
2. Add one Extra Network Card
3. use BSNL Type 3 or 4 modems which comes with 4 port Ethernet !!! :)

2. I have Win Xp on the main computer and Win 98 on the other. Will that be alright?

Yes

3. As both my computers are about 50 mts away, can I use a CAT cable for this purpose. If not, what is the other alternative.

Should not be any problem as on theory it can go up to 100m :)

thank you...
